Or maybe the republicans have simply taken up the Obama school of Presidenting: the constitution, courts, and citizens are obstacles to be ignored in the righteous crusade to do what you know is best for them, regardless of the daily bullshit such as legality or democratic opinion.

I think it could be fun and informative while greatly reducing the number of accidents (especially fatal ones) on the roads every year. Right now, the driving exam is basically a joke, it means that you know what the pedals...
